One of the things that players should look at as they go through the game are the characters. Expect plot twists to pop up here and there which is very common in RPGs and animes alike. As with the story, it will start off slow but as you go along, the story will pick up and eventually reach the climax near the end. He will meet with fairies and combat enemies using Familiars, which is similar to the monsters in Pokemon. Ni no Kuni starts off with Oliver, a young boy who sets off in a journey in the alternate reality of his world to save his mother from the evil White Witch. Instead of the normal fare, the story takes a light-hearted and heartwarming approach, which will appeal to anyone looking for a simple story. Those who are expecting a mature storyline in Ni no Kuni should skip the game as it will not have any of that. Equipped with a well-done British-English voice cast, the presentation and production value that the game will offer to JRPG fans is simply over the top. The design is simply exemplary that even anime fan will be captivated in such amazing design Ghilbi Studios did for Ni No Kuni. From the environments to the characters and the bosses, every art that you see throughout the game will make you feel that you are watching an anime. Co-developed by Level-5 and the Ghilbi anime studio that brought popular animes such as Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke, JRPG fans will be pleased to hear that both in-game and cinematic events will have its fair-share of anime-like visuals in the game. A lot hoped that one day, those beautiful anime cutscenes they see will be used with in-game visuals instead of being in the the cutscenes. Whenever there’s a Japanese RPG released, many become amazed when a game shows anime cutscenes. Let’s take a look on what’s HOT and what’s NOT in our review of Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch.


Promised to offer a unique art style, innovative gameplay and a heart-warming storyline, does Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch deliver on all these counts? Finally released in North America on the PlayStation 3, the much anticipated JRPG is here to grace all of the fans who have been patiently waiting for the game. As a Japanese RPG fan, I’ve always hoped that before this current console generation ends, there will be a game that I will remember and luckily, Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch was on my list. Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch has been on my radar ever since Level-5 introduced it in Japan.
